When I was a kid, I had some pretty awesome toys. Pretty Pretty Princess, the plastic Polly Pockets with huge wardrobes, the Barbie Dream House and awesome outside water toys all kept me entertained for hours. While my toys were cool, they were nowhere as cool as the toys the kids have today. I’m seriously jealous. Maybe I’ll add some of these to my Christmas list this year…

If you are anything like me you are spending the summer at home and your hoarders-obsessed mom is demanding that you clean out your childhood closet. Not only is this a total pain, there are memories attached to all the things you grew up with. You can’t get rid of them without feeling like you’re betraying a part of yourself. This dilemma can go one of two ways:
1. You can call an ultimatum and tell your mom that you are not getting rid of anything unless she ends her attachment to shoulder-padded 80’s blazers (this won’t end well) or
2. You can throw her a curveball by finding room for your childhood toys in your life. Here are some creative, grown-up ways to use the toys in your life. Read More »

[Ever see something you want but don't have the money to buy? Ever get sick of studying/watching TV and have the urge to get crafty and make things on your own? We know! Us too! We just don't know where to start, which is why we got some of CollegeCandy's craftiest writers to share their favorite DIY projects with everyone. So get to your nearest craft store for the essentials and let's make some fun sh*t.]
Every college girl has moments of extreme stress/anxiety/feeling a little crazy. Rather than take it out on a poor, defenseless friend (or door), I have the perfect project to ease your mind:The Dammit Doll.
These little dolls make great targets for taking out your frustration when you’re stressed about school, when you have guy troubles, and just in general when you need something to throw, jab, squeeze, or stomp on (not that I promote violence).
They also make great gifts for your angst-filled friends as well, and are much cuter than your average bland stress ball, not to mention cheaper than anger management classes.
Materials:
- Felt
- Stuffing (cotton balls, beans, pine straw, rice, etc.)
- Needle & thread or sewing machine
- Decorations (cut-out felt pieces for clothing, sequins for eyes, pins for jewelry, etc.) Read More »

After watching this video, we will try not hold McCain accountable for his superbly ignorant supporters, but it gets harder every day.
Apparently, bigotry knows no bounds when it comes to bad humor; some dude decided to bring a stuffed monkey with a Obama headband -- “Little Hussain” -- to a Palin/McCain rally. He's just as happy as could be to introduce the world to his disgusting piece of propaganda, and belts out a laugh that sorta reminds me of the devil.
Maybe I'm confused, I thought it was 2008, not 1968. This guy is an old adult, he should be setting a example, for Christ’s sake! Instead he's spreading pure hatred with a smile (and then awkwardly taking the toy apart like the coward he surely is).
Simply stupid.

Since it isn’t the real thing, I suppose it doesn’t need to look like the real thing? Right?
That’s up to you to decide.
And if you decide you’d rather receive pleasure from something that looks like an octopus at ” a rave,” or you’d like to get down in the bath tub with your bath time playmate…You have that option as well.
There’s somewhat of a stigma when it comes to women masturbating. It’s rarely talked about among friends, it isn’t as expected, if you will, as it would be if it were a man. So the fact that distributors are now creating vibrators that can easily be disguised as lipstick, comes as no surprise.
But can you imagine if you whipped lipstick out your purse for your Grandmother to borrow and her lips started vibrating?? Oh my. It may be tricky, but you have to be diligent about hiding it in the right place. Read More »

• When the going gets rough, the Japanese make toys.
• There’s something about Florida and incompetent people that will always be equally depressing and amusing. Which is why I’m not shocked this story involves both drugs and a bus driver.
• Two bus driver-related stories?! This one about a pissy driver who left his noisy student riders on the side of the road. Canadian bus drivers? Don’t mess.
• Video: Cute Alert! Take a minute and warm your heart. You’re welcome.
• This Friday night, break this out and see what happens!
• Do yourself a favor and read this on Saturday morning.
• Cute and inconvenient! Baby hogs totally hog the road (with picture!).

So, has anyone else noticed that dolls are getting really slutty?
First, the world had to deal with Bratz. Strange, big headed dolls with too much make-up and really skanky outfits. Dolls that—as far as I can tell—are totally aimed at creating 4th grade fashion disasters.
Besides making it seem cool to be so skinny your head looks like a watermelon, Bratz embody insipidness, sluttiness, and vapidness, limiting girls’ imaginations to taking their dolls to the “mall”, buying their dolls “stuff”, and seeing how many times their doll is mistaken for a hooker on the doll sidewalk.
Gone are the days when girls would be satisfied with a long, frilly pink dress for their dolls. Gone are the innocent one-piece bathing suits and “career” outfits. Now, thigh high stockings, tiny shirts, and skirts so short you can totally almost see plastic doll butt are all the rage.
Illustrating this disgusting theory even further is Barbie’s—or rather, Mattell’s—answer to the Bratz dynasty: My Scene Barbie. Read More »
